Merlin I see you live in Florida. It’s love bug season.... What do you use to get off big guts? I’ve heard a wet dryer sheet works great and doesn’t hurt the paint/clear coat.

I like it for many reasons...
1) It is concentrated. (I don't like paying for shipping water)
2) I'm not paying for a post mix watered down product.
3) It works great with both polymerized rubber and traditional clay.
I recently ordered up a bottle of this, tried it and found it horrible.
The instructions indicated to use full strength (undiluted) for clay barring. It is increadibly soapy and took multiple passes with a damp microfiber to rinse off. Thankfully I only did a small test area on my truck.
I then tried diluting with approximately 50% water. Still increadibly soapy.
I then tried diluting with about 75% water and still was not happy with the soapy, and somewhat sticky, consistency.
Finally gave up on this product and simply used a diluted car wash solution.

I would not recommend this product for clay barring.
